Is Your Gas Heater Safe?

Gas space heaters have been around for a long time but many people still don’t understand the importance of having them checked for safety.

Poorly maintained heaters can emit deadly carbon monoxide fumes that house occupants can’t see or smell.

Each winter fire authorities urge homeowners to have their heaters professionally serviced.

Technicians need specific qualifications to undertake this service and testing. Sharpe Services has professionals available to examine and service your heater today.

Last week Sharpe Services’ gasfitter Matt attended this Glenalta home to replace an older unit with a more effective and efficient Rinnai space heater.

As part of his work he tested the gas supply line for leaks and whether any carbon monoxide fumes were present in the room when the heater was turned on.

As well as regular servicing, Sharpe Services advises that the best protection against potentially deadly leaks is to get a carbon monoxide alarm installed.

Don’t take chances with your family’s safety. Sharpe Services is available now to service and safety check your gas heater. Call us today.
